This week's free download is the final movement 'Allegro Molto Vivace' from Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto. Written in 1844, the concerto was Mendelssohn's last major orchestral work before his death in 1847. The work was an instant success and has been a core part of the concerto repertory ever since.
The soloist on this recording is Jennifer Pike, who plays with a 'sweet, singing tone and graceful phrasing' writes Roger Nichols in the March issue of BBC Music Magazine.

I downloaded this track (there is only an MP3) without any issues. I played it and it sounded fine.
